This is mind-numbing the shots we put up. Raanta let us down a bit but offense has to bury more. They know it.

Obviously, our offense drying up is concerning, but honestly? I'm more ticked off at our goaltenders lately.
Giving up 3,4,5 goals on the limited shots we give up is terrible, especially when opposing goalies are stopping 40+

To be fair, they’re stopping 40+ shots to the belly button.

The SOG are concerning if you're focused on the numbers alone, but very few were what I would consider high danger. Chest, post, outside of net, missed, or Foreskin made an average save.

It's a huge impact but with a team as good as we thought these Canes were we shouldn't be losing these last several games the way we've lost them. And it's just 2 games missing all those guys, we were struggling before then. Common theme the last few years has been not dealing with adversity all that well. Refs take over the game to any degree or the other team has early success and we fold. It's embarrassing. I'm hoping it's just a relatively short lived slump that we get out of soon but there's plenty of reason to be concerned about this team.

My ticket rep has hounded me multiple times this year asking if I will be getting a package this year. I was literally all ready to make a purchase up until about 2 weeks ago then we just pulled a Canes where we start to suck and always have an excuse for it. Meanwhile Pens lose Crosby, Malkin, Letang regularly and rotate through goalies like it's going out of style and they still play competitively no matter what for the most part.

A.K.A. Quality chances...
I think thats why a few of us referenced Bill Peters era of dump and chase, just fire on net at will (or dont shoot at all when you should). Not going to be too hard on the guys but this one hurt tonight. Funks happen, and boy oh boy we are in one.
Pens are out of the playoffs by points percentage right now.
Our Top 6 LD are all healthy though, so it balances out.

And at this point, that's not unusual. And regardless they always make the playoffs.
No, we should not be the Pens in terms of success. But we have the depth and talent to play like they do when they're missing their best players.

Still pissed about that goalie interference call
Also jarvis had an ovi esque release on one shot. Was impressed
Also good for the Canadian capitals, they fought hard. Noticed #2 on defense a lot, in a good way.

I like Necas a lot as a player and he's going to be good for us for a while.
But man when he's not on his game he's just not a good player. Tonight there was far, far too much standing around with and without the puck, wasn't quick with his decisions, took too many low percentage shots, and was just not really impactful to the game at all. He really needs to be better given the role we expect him to play on the team.
By no means was he the only problem tonight, most of the team sucked ass, but his play was noticeable.
Also, I'm really f***ing sick and tired of watching this team take bad penalties. Its a problem that has been going on since Brindy took over, and its only getting worse. Its long past time this needed to get cleaned up.

Another thing I think needs to be mentioned is both tonight and the Capitals game, we had an opportunity for at least OT and couldn't do it.
That's points on the table

Look I don't feel like driving 3 hours tonight, one of you meet me in Greensboro or something and we can battle like warriors.
When did Carolina ever have depth that could withstand the loss of the top 3 RD?
Go back to 2018-19 and take out Hamilton, Faulk, and Pesce. What does that D look like compared to tonight? Is TVR on the top pairing significantly better than Cole there? You could call up 21 year old Jake Bean for the top 4, and what else?

But you know this place will melt if we lose to Buffalo. That's a must win, and it's totally not, but somehow is.
